This block includes integrated topics from Gross Anatomy, Microanatomy and Embryology. The course is designed around a framework based on regional anatomy. In each segment, the appropriate macro-, microscopic and developmental anatomy will be covered. Students accomplish cadaver dissections and microanatomy labs during this block. Throughout the course, there is a strong emphasis on three-dimensional anatomical relationships that is reinforced by small group discussions and demonstrations of regional radiographic imaging. Each unit has clear clinical correlations that are presented to the students in a variety of ways, including panel discussions, small groups, demonstrations and meetings. Students have the opportunity to develop initial physical diagnostic skills in a series of workshops, which correlate surface anatomy with internal structures and normal thoracic, abdominal and ENT exams.
